    I have a 2008 dually 3500 with a Lance camper in the box. Total weight of truck and camper is around 12,000 lbs. I have installed Roadmaster sway bars and air bags. I would like to replace the shocks. Koni shocks have been recommended but I do not believe Koni makes shocks for that truck. And recommendations please?

    I run the bilstein Silver shocks on the 3rd gen dually 4x4, stiffer than the yellow ones or OEM. Yellow on my 2wd. Haven't worn out a set yet. I went through the various Rancho options on both my trucks and they failed way early. I tow heavy GN/5th trailers mostly. I would go silver with a camper if your a 4x4, they are stiffer and more suited for the top heavy load. I think 2wd is yellow only. I have used yellow on my 2nd gen for the last 5 years or so, still perform like new.

    I second Bilstein. I've not had great success with the Rancho 9000's and other brands either.
